Amateur move at best. Should the germans and the french follow suit with a referendum whether they should bail out greece again?
The government that acted like nagging teenagers doesn't want to grow up, and chooses to bail. It saddens me that i voted for them.
Truth be told, the EU is forced to look in the mirror this time: Despite all the rhetoric and despite most europeans liking the idea, the greeks do not become more like germans and the germans do not become more like spaniards.
- konstruktor 11y ago> Should the germans and the french follow suit with a referendum whether they should bail out greece again? Yes, and they should have done so much earlier. If the other Eurozone governments would have listened to popular demand, Greece would not have been bailed out, and the default would not affect their taxpayers as much as it does now. The whole bailout programme was hubris, and it is time to call the bluff.
- bornabox 11y agoWell, it's politics. A lot of the big lenders were german banks. So it made sense for the german government to support more loans to Greece, because those were used to keep paying back german Banks. Grossly simplified, but that's what has been happening in the last years.
